Ernie Reyes Jr. was my childhood. The Last Dragon, Surf Ninjas, Sidekicks, TMNT. Love this guy.
Same here. The Last Dragon is still awesome.
Same! Still have an old VHS somewhere with a handful of episodes of "Sidekicks" on it.
Same! Red Sonja as well!
another same from me, even spent a summer singing barbara ann and telling cousin off for what iffing
MOTO SURF!!!!!
I'm so happy Art of Action is back! The guests never disappoint and it's always nice to see Scott talking about what he loves. Keep em coming!
I really like this format 👍
Same here bro
wow surf ninjas is a throwback "money cant buy knives" 🤣🤣
This is incredible footage! I’m 56 and remember Ernie when he was a kid and all the gymnasts he mentioned. I mean, not to take anything away from Bruce Lee, he’s my hero, but you just never see interviews with guys like Ernie Reyes Jr. or people even mentioning guys like him! Thanks Scott, and for what it’s worth, I think you should’ve been Batman by now!
Man it feels like forever since we had Art of Action! Can’t wait. Ernie Reyes Jr was a beast!
Ernie Reyes is Legend! We also consider him a friend and mentor.
The last Dragon is one of my all time favourite movies.
What a legend! I'm 43 years old, grew up watching him on Sidekicks, TMNT, The Rundown and more, loved him and will ever love him! A true warrior and true inspiration for me and millions more. Wish him a healthy and wealthy life! He deserves it! You WILL live a thousand years in our hearts. Thanks for your humbleness and power!
I remember Sidekicks!
Surf Ninjas was fucking AWESOME best movie of 1993. childhood memories.
This guy has been one of the stapes of martial arts in film. He belongs with the greatest Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Lee, Donnie Yen, and Ernie Reyes.
Scott really shows his passion for all things martial arts. His guests are amazing and insightful. Good to see Art of Action back.
No way its been a year since Art of Action ! Great choice on your first one back, Ernie Reyes Jr is a badass
SO GLAD THIS INTERVIEW HAPPENED. This is the BEST talk show EVER!!!!!
I said this before: If there's one good thing that came during the Covid-19 pandemic, it's Art Of Action. Thanks Scott for the passion you put on this show.
I hope you get an interview with Taimak in the future.
I just wrote dat bout Bruce Leroy too,hope dat happens soon
His action scenes on the Rundown were some of the best.
Oh Christ aye, he battered the rock lol “spinning Tarzan jiu jitsu”
What a rough road, man. So glad he’s doing well and hope to see him in action again!
I know Scott feels like a kid talking to all of the Martial arts Icons!
I know I sure as hell would!!!!
He is one of my all time favorite actors! I have watched him since childhood. I rented Surf Ninjas a million times
Ernie Reyes jr. is one of the diamonds from martial arts world, it was so great watching him so young with all that skills, a great martial artist. I studied Taekwondo as a kid back in the 80s, and he inspired me every time I saw him on the screen.
This it’s awesome. What a legend. I hope he talks about Red Sonia. First time I saw him as a kid
Surf Ninjas is such a fun film. Saw it in the cinema when I was a kid in the 90s and now my son loves it.
Thanks for featuring Ernie Reyes Jr, Scott! Listening to him brought me back to my childhood. So glad that his kidney surgery was successful. Stay strong and healthy guys!
I didnt know that. It looks like it took a serious toll on his health
Thank you sir, for having Ernie Reyes, Jr. on your show. He is a living legend of the martial arts. This interview was awesome!
Sir, I am so delighted this is back.
Please bring Don the Dragon Wilson.
Aye!!!
I missed The Art of Action.Ernie Reyes Jr,I’ve watched his journey from when I first saw him in Red Sonja,Berry Gordy’s Last Dragon to name a few.He is truly remarkable.A really great interview again Scott.
Huge Ernie fan! Grew up watching him kick ass in so many cool films that they just don't make anymore. What a good guy!!! You can see the background of respect and humility which has been drilled into him by the way he presents himself and talks about others.
Two of my childhood, and current heroes. I LOVE how Scott is bringing all the people we love in the martial arts and action movie genre together. I've been wanting to see these types of things ever since seeing their first films as a kid. What a time to be alive!
Well done Scott! Ernie is my hero!!
The Last Dragon was on repeat during my childhood
It was his spinning kicks in TMNT that made me finally make the jump at 12 to get into martial arts. Much respect, Ernie!
I always enjoyed watching Ernie Reyes Jr., especially when he was a child. I loved him in the Last Dragon. A sequel would be great. Return of the Last Dragon. Thank you for sharing this interview with us Martial Arts Buffs.
One of the best interviews I've ever seen with a martial artist. Ernie Reyes Jr.
your background, life, the people you've met, your accomplishments, are beyond amazing. What an honor to watch this! Blessings to you sir!
Glad the Art of Action is back. Such great conversations.
Very happy to see Art Of Action back.
I've always been a fan of Ernie since I first saw him in Red Sonja and Secret Bodyguard. His martial arts skills are so impressive. I really hope to see him in something again soon 🤞😊
Ernie is a fucking legend!!! I was so mad when he came to Michigan he was 3 miles away from my house and I didn’t know he was there until the day after. Wansu Dudes!!!! #SurfNinjas my brother Samie and I literally just watch that movie the other day it’s only on DVD I wish they would upgrade it to Blu-ray. I hope I get the chance to work with you both one day. I came close to working with Scott on the movie Castle Falls.
Loved watching Ernie on Sidekicks when I was 13. Was very motivating.
Ernie Reyes Jr was like a big brother growing up in the 90s with TMNT and Surf Ninjas. Great flicks, big fan! 👏🏼🥋
He is such a modern legend. Been watching Ernie since I was a kid in the 80’s with Sidekicks and last dragon on VHS . And it’s awesome to see him bounce back from his kidney issues can not wait to see what he does next . He truly has the heart of a warrior !
I just want to say. I am 32 years old on dialysis. Was born with a rare kidney disease,I did martial arts growing up till I ended up on dialysis for kidney failure. Huge amount of respect to you Ernie!!!
I hope you’re ok
As a young Filipino boy in the 90s, Ernie Reyes Jr. was my hero. We share the same last name, and I remember trying to found out if we were related back when I was in elementary school. We aren't related, but I started learning martial arts because of him, Jackie Chan, and Bruce Lee. But man, I had all of his movies on VHS, and watched them all of the time.
Erie Reyes Jr. was & is a tremendous inspiration & motivation for me growing up & all my life. So much that everyone in my family nicknamed me Ernie's character's name from TMNT 2, "Keno". Especially because I would channel him in my Martial Arts performances like he would channel Bruce Lee. It would always go back to him, Ernie. This interview was an amazing gift for me. Don't get me wrong, I am so very grateful & appreciative. No terms, words,... to describe how much and what I think & feel. So incredibly, infinitely, beyond,... that I'm also disappointed that it was such a short tease of an interview. An extended tease of the teaser. There was no mention of "FINAL FU". One of my favorite shows. I would also watch WMAC MASTERS with the hope of seeing Ernie Reyes Jr. on there some day. Which he much deserved to be among those other Martial Artists. But, I take what I can get. Thank you Scott & Ernie for making my very long waited dream come true.
ERNIE REYES JR., SIR YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST!!!! AN INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL HUMAN BEING, EXPRESSING,...
Ernie Reyes Jr. the last dragon was amazed how skilled & young he was.
Scott Atkins deserves so much more in his career. The nicest guy, one of the best martial artists that I’ve seen that’s got the looks and acting skill to carry an A class film, yet he gives back to those that inspired him. Respect to him and those who those who have earned his respect.
This dude is a legend! I remember being mad at TMNT2 when I was a kid because Casey Jones didn’t come back but I didn’t complain about Keno lol
Ernie Reyes Jr. was next level back in the Day!!!! A true inspiration!!
Scott and Ernie working together would be 🤯🤯 please god bless us all
My absolute two favorite actors and martial Artists in one interview!!!
This guy is in most of my childhood favorites! The hours of entertainment he provided while I stood in front of the TV mimicking fight scenes are unmatched.
Surf Ninjas might be the movie I've seen most in my life. I rented it every weekend from the local video store.
Said it once and I'll say it again.. criminally underrated as an interviewer Mr Adkins.. brilliant work here!!!!
Surf Ninjas is my favorite childhood movie. That and Ninja Turtles. Thank you.
I’m glad this is back Scott,I’ve never missed any of the series and again it was really great to see you at this years UKMartialArts Expo Show in Doncaster and to have a selfie taken with you too that was Amazing Boyka 💜🙏🏽☯️🙏🏽💜
You got to meet Scott??? As the yoof say I’m wel jel lol
I remember growing up watching The Last Electric Knight! That was my inspiration into martial arts. This dude rocks! Two living legends right here!!
Just so this is finally said, I always loved Surf Ninjas and is a classic to me ❤
Sidekick and his guestings on MacGyver were always welcome with our family while watching television in the 80s.
I remember when he showed up in "The Rundown"...that was an awesome moment. And I was definitely impressed with how his physique and technique had evolved. The fight choreography was spot on for the film. I second Adkins...def one of DJ's better movies.
When I was a kid, we had very few VHS tapes to watch, Surf Ninjas was one of them. When anyone asks what my favorite movie is, to this day I say Surf Ninjas. I loved seeing someone who looked like me on screen, before I understood what representation was. He was my equivalent of a Filipino superhero. Love Ernie Reyes Jr. and this interview, thank you for bringing him back into my life Scott!
This man completely shaped my love for martial arts films as a child. My entire family still quotes Surf Ninjas on a daily basis. TMNT2, Last Dragon. Just an absolute legend.
Ernie Reyes Jr has always been one of my favorite karate/actors! Surf Ninjas and TMNT 2 are both one of my all time fav movies
Thank you Scott . Feels like a hundred years of waiting
Loved ernie Reyes Jr movies growing up. I always thought he should have been an even bigger star and a bigger career. He was great jn movies
I miss him ! I cannot believe how time flies!
Ernie seems like genuine nice guy, and of course Scott is a class act too.
Ernie Reyes Jr...was just badass when i was a kid. So great to see him.
Wonderful interview!! I'm so glad The Art Of Action is back as well as Ernie Reyes Jr being there! 🙏🥋🙇🏼♂️
This guy was my hero in the 80's man...the only other person who had that intensity was Bruce Lee...Ernie Reyes you are a dam Legend bro!
Great interview ... Ernie Reyes Jnr as a kid was an inspirational martial arts talent... i learnt Silat while at high school to defend myself from bullies due to great films like his ...
1 of My Stuntman and Actor since I was a kid and still today!!!
Great great great. Ernie is my teenage hero. I always love his movies. Thanks Scott God bless you.
as a Martial Artist myself Always be Ready and keep those films Rolling and the styles flowing! As Bruce Lee says. Be water my Friend!
I've been waiting a long time for this of the art of action.
This guy is the reason I started martial arts
28 years ago and been kicking ever since
I forgot how good ernie was, this is the first the art of action I’ve seen, great interview/chat he was a childhood favourite because of tmnt
Scott has a natural humor about everything I bet hanging around him you'd laugh ALOT.
absolutely love the last dragon didn't realize that was him and surf ninjas is one of my all time favorites me and my brothers practically wore out the vhs tape as kids because watched it constantly we also cheered so loud when he showed up in the rundown TMNT series and surf ninjas were a big part of our childhood
At last! I was withering away without Art of Action to watch. This has made me genuinely so happy :D
I've thought this many, many times but Scott needs and deserves more recognition than he has, he's an all round awesome person!!
Sooooo there's the possibility of you and Ernie Reyes Jr working together? Stay ready, Ernie! Great to have Art of Action back. What a surprise treat.
Great work Scott, that is fresh juice for real action movies fans, we are waiting for the next series!
Ernie is a legend!
I remember him way back "SideKick" days. I knew of Ernie long before I learned of Bruce Lee. I watched episodes breaking down his moves and practicing them.
Was always happy to see him pop up throughout the years in movies.
Glad to see The Art Of Action back! And with Ernie Reyes Jr! It awesome seeing him in Ninja Turtles 2, Surf Ninjas and The Rundown! Such an experienced martial artist!
So awesome to see ERNIE REYES!! & LOVED WATCHING YOUR DAD…always an Inspiration!!❤️❤️🔥🔥😍🙌🏽😎🤙🏽🌺🙏🏽❤️🔥🔥🔥💪🏽😎🤙🏽👊🏽❤️🔥🔥
So glad that #ArtOfAction is back ... This is probably one of the only UA-cam shows that I watch right through! Awesome stuff!
This guy is a legend. Deserves a lot more credit than given.
Surf ninjas and Tmnt were my childhood I would constantly watch them over and over and over and over again I love this guy
I'm very happy to be able to see Scott. I miss him. Good luck Master👊💙.

Scott's a Midlands boy like myself & his love, enthusiasm and respect shines throughout all his interviews.
